There’s nothing that could convince some folks here that the earth is over 10,000 years old.

I believe the earth and the universe is ‘eons’ old. I believe this creation is about 6,000 years old. It seems reasonable that the unexplained, ‘acient’ fossil evidence is from a previous creation, on this same earth. It is likely that the dinasaurs existed in that previous creation. The ‘Great Ice Age’ that covered much or most of the earth with glaciers probably was before this creation.
Lucifer, when he was still ‘one of the good guys’ was given dominion over the earth - I believe that was dominion over a creation - living, breathing creatures, likely humanoids. It seems likely that when Lucifer (Satan) became the would-be-usurper and was cast out of heaven, the creation existing then was destroyed, likely by flood and deep freeze.
Just my thoughts. Of course, none of this matters. We will be shown more someday, if it is important, and we will know. ‘Til then, just relax and enjoy the ride, focusing on Him! He is in control!
